We now know that Susan Rice is the person who asked that Trump, his family and campaign aides be unmasked. Despite the pleadings to the contrary, she knows she's done something very wrong. If not, she wouldn't have lied straight out about it.
On "PBS NewsHour" on March 22, Judy Woodruff asked Rice about Nunes' claims.Rice has a well established reputation for being a liar."I know nothing about this," Rice responded at the time. "I was surprised to see reports from Chairman Nunes on that count today."
"So, today, I really don't know to what Chairman Nunes was referring, but he said that whatever he was referring to was a legal, lawful surveillance, and that it was potentially incidental collection on American citizens," added Rice, who went on to criticize Trump for his accusation that Obama wiretapped him during the presidential campaign.
Predictably, the media has leaped to her defense. Then again, while the media has been fixated on Trump (and we will soon see why) it has largely ignored that leaking of the Flynn transcript is a violation of the Espionage Act. Intelligence officials have said that Flynn is not guilty of any criminal wrongdoing.
A current U.S. intelligence official tells NPR's Mary Louise Kelly that there is no evidence of criminal wrongdoing in the transcripts of former national security adviser Michael Flynn's conversations with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak, although the official noted that doesn't rule out the possibility of illegal actions.If he did nothing wrong, why was he unmasked and then why was the transcript leaked?The official also says that there are recordings as well as transcripts of the calls, and that the transcripts don't suggest Flynn was acting under orders in his conversations.
Rice's interest in Trump seems to have begun in July and then peaked after the election.
Without any question it is an orchestrated plan to destroy the Trump Presidency. Rice not only ordered unmasking, but she also demanded "detailed spread sheets" on Trump phone calls.
Former President Barack Obama’s national security adviser Susan Rice ordered U.S. spy agencies to produce “detailed spreadsheets” of legal phone calls involving Donald Trump and his aides when he was running for president, according to former U.S. Attorney Joseph diGenova.But it's a little farther down in the story that the nugget emerges:“What was produced by the intelligence community at the request of Ms. Rice were detailed spreadsheets of intercepted phone calls with unmasked Trump associates in perfectly legal conversations with individuals,” diGenova told The Daily Caller News Foundation Investigative Group Monday.
“The overheard conversations involved no illegal activity by anybody of the Trump associates, or anyone they were speaking with,” diGenova said. “In short, the only apparent illegal activity was the unmasking of the people in the calls.”
Also on Monday, Fox News and Bloomberg News, citing multiple sources reported that Rice had requested the intelligence information that was produced in a highly organized operation. Fox said the unmasked names of Trump aides were given to officials at the National Security Council (NSC), the Department of Defense, James Clapper, President Obama’s Director of National Intelligence, and John Brennan, Obama’s CIA Director.There it is. Ben Rhodes.Joining Rice in the alleged White House operations was her deputy Ben Rhodes, according to Fox.
To refresh your memory, Ben Rhodes is the fiction writer with "no real-world experience" who somehow became a Deputy National Security Adviser. Ben Rhodes is also the brother of CBS News President David Rhodes, which explains a lot of the media coverage. I've written about Rhodes before. Rhodes is also the mastermind of the misleading "It was the video" Benghazi talking points.
But there's more.

Describes PIAPS to a “T”
Since everyone coordinated with Trump in the Tower...the Tower cannot be excluded as a place subjected to surveillance.
These people were being tracked...and for no security reason...therefore, it WAS unlawful.
Wasn’t there a famous rat named Ben?
This really is all about the nepotism between the far left that dominates government and the far left that dominates mainstream media.
A bunch of know-nothings and do-nothings making themselves rich while bungling their way through life, throwing up massive amounts of bullshit and the media organs dutifully spoon-feed to an incredibly stupid population...a population made that way by their far left friends that dominate the education structure. Morons all. And because of it we have a collapsing, decrepit old nation.
Obama’s Admin may have started it, but lots of Republicans like Graham, Ryan, McCain, Haley, Cheney also poured fuel on the fire to hurt Trump. Nikki Haley was disloyal to Trump when she made that statement the other day.
Everybody up to and including the janitors in Trump Tower know about this. The question is what is going to be done about it? The Marxists will do everything to delay and obfuscate until they can get back in a position of some power and then sweep it down the memory hole or turn it over to Winston Smith and Julia.
No freakin wonder why the democrats FREAKED out over Trump's election. They knew he now was privy to national intelligence.
Thank you Lord
I know that Nikki Haley was nevertrump during the election but I hadn`t heard about any recent comments. Do you have details?
I`ve always wondered why Trump picked her to be part of his administration. Maybe he did it to reward the SC Leiutenant Governor who had supported him in the election?
I don’t know either.
Yes. Michal Jackson wrote a song about him.
Great article. Thank you for posting. The pieces fit perfectly now.
Bttt.

Ben, the two of us need look no more
We both found what we were looking for...

There’s that name again, Ben Rhodes. A know nothing Peasant, elevated to High Stature, just like his boss was, for accomplishing Nothing on Merit.
